Dante Bowe - Wait On You Lyrics

Wait On You Lyrics

Verse 1: Dante Bowe
I don't believe in fairytales
I guess I've outgrown them
But that doesn't mean that I don't believe
That there's something bigger than me
'Cause I've seen, in a hospital room
When the doctors said, "Sorry
There's nothing more we can do"
Well, it wasn't through

Verse 2: Dante Bowe
I've never seen a pot of gold
At the end of the rainbow
But I've got a promise I can hold
In the middle of the struggle
God, if You said it, You'll perform it
May not be how I want You to
But here's what I'll do

Chorus: Dante Bowe & Chandler Moore
I'm gonna wait on You
I'm gonna wait on You
I'vе tasted Your goodness
I'll trust in Your promise
I'm gonna wait on You
Yеs, I'm gonna wait on You (Yeah)
I've tasted Your goodness
I'll trust in Your promise
I'm gonna wait on You
Yes, I will, yes, I will (Oh)
I will, I will, I will (I will), yeah
Verse 3: Dante Bowe, Dante Bowe & Chandler Moore
I know You've ordered every step
Yeah, You are the Author
And there's no predicting what is next
But You hold the future
And all the questions, they come second
To the one I know is true, yeah
Oh, You've always been true

Chorus: Dante Bowe & Chandler Moore
So I'm gonna wait on You, yes
I'm gonna wait on You
I've tasted Your goodness
Trust in Your promise
I'm gonna wait on You (Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
I'm gonna wait on You (Jesus)
I've tasted Your goodness
I'll trust in Your promise
I'm gonna wait on You, oh

Interlude: Dante Bowe & Chandler Moore
Oh, it's the least I can do (It's the least I can do)
Is wait on You, wait on You
What else is there to do? (It's the least I can do)
I'm gonna wait, yeah (Said I'm gonna wait)
I'm gonna wait, yeah (I don't mind waiting)
Yeah

Interlude: Chandler Moore, Dante Bowe
They that wait on the Lord

Like an eagle and they'll soar
They shall walk and not get weary
They shall run and not faint
That's what happens when you wait
Happens when you wait (Wait)

They shall mount up, up on wings
Like an eagle and soar
They shall walk and not get weary
They shall run and not faint
That's what happens when you wait
That's what happens when you
That's what happens when you wait
I'll get a little stronger
That's what happens when you wait
Yeah, you get a little stronger
That's what happens when you wait
You get a little stronger (Yeah)
That's what happens when you wait (Yeah)
You get a little stronger (They that wait, yeah)
That's what happens when you wait

Wait On You | Elevation Worship & Maverick City

Wait On You Song Meaning, Biblical Reference and Inspiration

"Wait On You" is a notable song from Maverick City Music's album "Jubilee," released in 2021. Featuring vocals by Dante Bowe and Chandler Moore, the track quickly gained prominence, resonating with audiences for its heartfelt message and dynamic delivery. The song emerged as a significant piece within the contemporary worship genre, capturing a moment of collective reflection on faith and patience during challenging times.

Lyrically, "Wait On You" explores the theme of steadfast faith and trust in God despite uncertain or difficult circumstances. The verses contrast common human experiences, such as outgrowing fairytales or never finding a literal pot of gold, with the tangible reality of experiencing divine intervention ("in a hospital room") and holding onto God's promises amidst struggle. The core message revolves around the commitment to "wait on You," emphasizing that this waiting is rooted in a personal experience of God's "goodness" and a firm belief in the reliability of His "promise." The song acknowledges the unpredictability of life ("no predicting what is next") but anchors itself in the certainty that God holds the future and has always been true.

A key aspect of the song's message is its direct connection to specific scripture. The bridge, interlude, and outro repeatedly echo and elaborate on the promises found in Isaiah 40:31: "They that wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; and they shall walk, and not faint." The lyrics incorporate these phrases, highlighting the biblical assurance that waiting on God is not passive inactivity but an active posture that leads to renewed strength, elevated perspective, and endurance. Other lyrical elements, such as acknowledging that God has "ordered every step," align with biblical concepts like those found in Psalm 37:23 regarding the Lord directing a person's steps, and the overall theme of trusting God's word and faithfulness reflects principles found throughout the Bible. The song underscores that the act of waiting is an essential part of the believer's journey, resulting in spiritual strengthening and reliance on God's power rather than one's own.
